The cold phoenix eyes swept over the dry and dirty straw mat one by one, until the gaze fell on a touch of whiteness.

Compared to the dirty and dry underground chamber at this moment, the coarse cloth was indeed white.

Xu was because there was something on the straw mat, and it was covered with a coarse cloth that looked particularly uneven, and the uneven position happened to be the figure of an adult woman.

Xue Hainiang walked forward slowly, snatched the lantern from the flower's hand and walked forward, her steps were steady and light, but if she looked closely, she could still detect the slight tremor of the slender back.

With the dim fire emitted by the lantern in her hand, Xue Hainiang lifted the coarse cloth, revealing her hidden head.

In the field of vision, the graceful and delicate face was haggard and pale, not the expected hideousness and pain, but the slightly frowning willow eyebrows were enough to show that the master's death was not peaceful.

"Did the concubine Niangniang ever tell me how Cai Xi didn't ......" Without a trace of undulating voices, she slowly sounded.

Hua Hua was slightly stunned, "It seems that there was an argument with the Praetorian Guard, and the Praetorian Guard accidentally injured someone by mistake after a moment of negligence." ”

Xue Hainiang already had the answer in her heart, but she needed more definite evidence.

"Did the concubine Niangniang ever say what to do with Cai Xi's body?" Xue Hainiang said lightly, if it weren't for the slight sorrow revealed by the slightly twisted eyebrows, others would really mistakenly think that the person lying on the straw mat had nothing to do with her.

Hua nodded, and said slowly: "Niangniang said, Caixi is also considered to be a meritorious protector, and now unfortunately killed, the concubine Niangniang took pity on her loyal protector, and specially gave her body to be sealed in the coffin on a certain day, and ordered to be sent to her hometown for burial." ”

The fallen leaves return to their roots, which can be regarded as fulfilling Caixi's wish to return to his hometown.

Xue Hainiang's face was still as usual, but her beautiful face seemed to be a little whiter, and under the candlelight, it looked particularly weird, and her red lips opened lightly, "Cai Xi has been looking forward to returning to her hometown all her life, and Hai Niang begged the concubine Niangniang to fulfill Cai Xi's wish and bury her beautifully." ”

Flowers answered.

Xue Hainiang lifted all the coarse cloths and looked people up and down, except for her slightly pale and haggard face, she was no different from ordinary people, her clothes were neat, her skin was as white as snow, as if she was a sleeping beauty.

In this way, the slightly frowning eyebrows are really a bit of an eyesore-

Xue Hainiang stretched out her hand, smoothed her frowning willow eyebrows, stared at the serene and friendly person, and then turned to leave.

It's night, the night is like ink that can't be dissolved, and the stars tonight seem to be extraordinarily few, just a few scattered on the night.

After Xue Hainiang parted ways with flowers, she went to the Chonghua Hall of Zhongcui Palace alone, and after learning that Liang Bairou was sleeping, she came to the rockery alone with a lantern.

The rockery is overgrown with shrubs, and the rockery is all over the place, and the road is tortuous, but it is an excellent place to hide and not easy to be noticed.

Familiarly came to the concave and convex position of the rockery, sat down, put out the fire and leaned on the cold rock, rolled up the water sleeves and fixed it with a shawl, and dug it into the mud with his bare hands.

After a while, the ten fingers that did not touch the spring water were gradually red and swollen, but the person who ploughed the soil seemed to have lost his sense of pain, and he was still digging the soil as if no one else was digging the soil, and only after a long time did he take out a jar of wine stained with dust and mud from it.

This wine jar was originally when he first entered the palace, Liang Bairou had just been named a beauty for a long time, and Cai Xi, Huanyue and Xue Hainiang, who were transferred to Chonghua Hall to serve together, were buried together.

There is such a folk legend, according to legend, the woman of 28 years old will be sealed tightly and buried in the soil, and on the day of the wedding, the soil will be dug open, and the wine jar will be taken out for the wedding day to hand over a glass of wine, you can be in harmony with her husband for a hundred years, and raise eyebrows.

At that time, Cai Xi and Huanyue were full of longing, looking forward to finding a lover in the palace who was in love, and Liang Bairou would marry him, and the scenery would marry, and the wine buried in the ground would come in handy.

At that time, Xue Hainiang scoffed at this statement.

She married into the royal family in the past, and on the wedding day, she didn't drink the red daughter buried in the ground when she drank cardamom with her husband, but in the end, she ended up betraying her husband and being betrayed to death.

Although she was disdainful in her heart, in order not to show that she was tall and out of place, Xue Hainiang still laughed with the two of them, and buried the three jars of wine into the ground with laughter.

The matter has come to this, just one year, Huanyue was given wine and died, Caixi died because of the protector, and she, the betrayal of her husband in the previous life, has already exhausted her longing for love.

Three people, three jars of wine, but none of them can stay until the day of the wedding, and drink with the husband.

Xue Hainiang opened one of the jars of wine, pulled out the cork and threw it away, accompanied by her wanton and sassy posture at this time, the aroma of wine overflowed for a while.

There has always been a master who is good at winemaking in the palace, and these three jars of wine are made by Cai Xi and Huanyue in front of Liang Bairou in exchange for soft grinding and hard bubbles, although it is not the best in the palace, but it is rare among the people, she remembers, this wine seems to be crowned with a nickname, 'Xiao Zhaohui'.

Xue Hainiang's amount of wine has always been good, but at this moment, she didn't care where she was, holding the wine jar under her lips and pouring it down. Although the demeanor at this moment is chic, it carries a surge of anger!

The empty jar rolled on the uneven rocks several times before stopping.

Xue Hainiang was afraid of attracting the Praetorian Guards patrolling around, so she didn't care about the image and slammed her palm downward.

'Snort'

It's like a sharp sound that cuts through the texture.

The empty wine jar is no longer rolling around, and I think it was Fang Cai's casual press that pressed it in the right place.

Ignoring the severed palm, he rudely pulled up the cork and threw it, but this time there was no slight sound of the cork being thrown to the ground.

If it were Xue Hainiang's usual astuteness, she would definitely be able to detect this strangeness, but at this moment, she was drunk in her brain, coupled with the rumors of the wind, she didn't notice it for a while, and just blindly poured wine into her mouth.

It was another jar at the bottom, but this time she was more cautious, and kept the jar on the ground to prevent it from rolling around. Then, another jar of wine was opened, and the cork was thrown everywhere and the head was raised......

Strangely, I didn't feel the cold touch fill my lips and teeth for a long time, cutting across my throat.

Xue Hainiang was stunned, raised her eyes, and saw that there seemed to be another hand resting on the wine jar.

She used to hold the jar with two hands, but now the third hand—

Xue Hainiang was shocked, and woke up in an instant, this glance was much more effective than any sobering pill.

Watch as she snatches the wine jar into her arms. The person laughed, as if surprised, the matter has come to this point, this person is not worried about whether he will be punished for drinking in the palace, but even thinking about whether her wine will be taken away!

"This Xiao Zhaohui is very precious, you drink like this, is there some suspicion of tyrannical things?"
